Sixth Grade Summer

Read about a neighborhood of All-American kids, growing up. The stories will make you laugh and maybe cry.

School was cool! Freedom and free thinking ruled the day. Girls were going through a revolutionary change and boys didn't have a chance. The boys were learning that the girls really did have something special.

Summer romance and first loves are some of the many stories; but baseball, treeforts, fighting and much more are part of the story. Who knew girls could become sharks?

"Out of the depths of the dark sea, Candy appeared like a large shark, with deep, dark eyes. It was like a scene from a prison movie; she swam by my table and dumped chocolate milk in my lunch tray. The boys laughed and had a heyday with that one. We went out to recess. As soon as Russ, Skip and I hit the exit doors there appeared Candy and her goon squad of six girls. Betty Smith, the Amazon Woman, Janet Betts, Ms Butch America, and several other girls who had hair on their upper lips. Betty said to Skip, "You're gettin' your ass kicked shrimp!'"

This excerpt is just one of many fun filled, action packed tales.
